If this is something you'd like to do, we have openings in our content team ;)

tickets now available at https://basestack.gg/dortmund/uberfest-2024/

https://esports-news.co.uk/2024/05/25/insomnia-company-enters-liquidation/

bar will be open until late early

any chance of putting those up on the fireside youtube so we can watch?

At least in EU, the problem is that it was being kept alive by a small handful of people who slowly lost interest, and none of the adverts we put out resulted in new people coming on board. I like reading those articles, and if anybody wants to write them DM me here or on Discord (@jmaxchill) and we can support you writing, editing, formatting etc, but unless people want to write and come forward to do it then it sadly won't happen.

shami what kind of tea do you drink?

people at the bar afterwards asked me if it was worth it. if spending lan locked in the production box was really what I wanted. if I knew how un-appreciated producing is. if I knew nobody cares. I got to build and run the production of my dreams. everything I wanted has been enabled by staff, casters and players. in return I have received nothing but gratitude, praise and appreciation.

could I take what I've learned from TF2 elsewhere? easily. I can and have walked into productions for other, better paying games, but these three days have shown why I can't walk away from TF2. the days and weeks of work aren't going towards some corporate production for a crowd I've never met. they're going towards the best lan I've ever been to, for a community that (for better or worse) I care about, and that has shown it cares about what we do.

it was worth it. you made it worth it. thank you.

thank you poland :)

in my defence the other grix is norwegian

As a writer, as a caster, as a producer, as an admin, a coordinator, a mentor, an organiser, Ohia put her heart and soul into this community, as with so much that she did, and I can only be glad I got to work with her for the short time I did. After what she had been through, to have reached the light at the end of the tunnel and be gone almost immediately... rest in peace, and all love to the family that you built.

besides meeting everyone, karaoke and earnestly debating cheatfeed with a blackout drunk toemas, stage observing the i71 finals was something else. production at home means sitting quietly in your room pressing buttons and watching twitch chat shitpost. production at lan means hearing drunk nerds roar when piggles airshots sil or sneaky headshots toemas.

final bump for production signups, we need producers, observers and casters so if you're interested sign up at https://volunteer.poland.tf

good luck with that, I reckon most of tftv would be there in person not online
